Unit 4: Chemistry - Density and Property Changes Flashcards
Metric System
Mass (units)
-Kilograms (kg)
-Grams (g)
-Scale
Metric System
Volume (units)
Regular shaped object:
-cm(cubed)
-Ruler
Irregular shaped object:
-Water Displacement Method
-1mL = 1cm(cubed)
-Graduated cylindar
Qualitative Property
-Don’t find exact measurements
-Words
-Observed
-Only look/feel matter
Quantitative Property
-Find exact number/measurement
-Numbers
-Tools
Mass
Amount of particles in substance
-Quantitative
Mass vs. Weight
-Mass does not change
-Weight pull of gravity on matter, does change
Volume
Amount of space substance takes up
-Quantitative
Irregular Shaped Object Volume Measurement
Water Displacement Method:
-Used for irregular shapes
Steps:
1. Filll grad. cylindar with water
2. Water measurement
3. Object in cylindar + take measurement
4. Subtract water with object from initial water
Relationship Between Mass and Volume
-Higher volume does not mean a higher mass
ex.
Metal Block:
Mass - 43.8g
Volume - 15.6 cm(cubed)
Water:
Mass - 25g
Volume - 25mL
*Block had a greater mass than the water, but it had a lesser volume than the water
Density
-Amount of particles in a cubic centimeter
-Each matter has unique density
-Ratio between mass and volume
-Physical property
*More close together = higher density
How to find density:
mass/volume = density
D = g/cm(cubed)
What happens to the matter’s density if you cut up the substance?
*Stays the same because it is mass PER cm(cubed)
Density is used to identify material of substance
What is the affect of water’s density on other substances and whether it can float or not?
Water’s Density - 1g/cm(cubed)
-Substance’s density higher than water’s density = sinks
-Substance’s density lower than water’s density = floats
-Substance’s density closer to water’s density but below = water will cover object more
-Substance’s density farther to water’s density but below = water will cover object more
Does air take up space?
Yes
Demostrations:
Funnel Test - water didn’t go to beaker beucase stopper sealing edges
Connected Syringes - push one syringe, other syringe goes up because air moves to syringe
Why is the air inivisible?
-Molecules too small to see
-Molecules so spread out
For a solid, even though molecules too small to see, still very close together
What is the density of water?
1g/cm(cubed)
9.2 grams and 2.05 cm(cubed)
What is the substance?
4.49g/cn(cubed)
Titanium
